A macabre discovery took place in Maramureș, where a human skull and a leg were found in a field on the outskirts of the locality of Pribilești. Police, criminalists, specialists from the Forensic Medicine Service, and a criminal prosecutor intervened at the scene, and the area was secured. During the investigations, the investigators discovered a jacket containing two mobile phones. The human remains were found in freshly plowed land, and specialists estimate that they could be 4-5 years old.


Investigators are considering the possibility that the remains belong to a man who went missing from the area on Christmas Eve 2022, but there is no clear evidence to confirm this hypothesis. Forensic examinations will help identify the victim and establish the cause of death. What is certain is that the body was dismembered during the plowing of the land, and the circumstances under which the remains ended up there remain a mystery.
